What MLB Spring Training Is REALLY Like (Inside Story)

Описание: The Reality of MLB Spring Training: What It's REALLY Like to Fight for a Roster Spot

Former MLB pitcher Jacob Turner reveals what spring training is actually like for players fighting to make the team; not the superstars playing 3 innings before golf.
In 11 years of professional baseball, I lived through the brutal reality:

60-70 players competing for only 5-6 open roster spots
3-hour bus rides not knowing when you'll pitch
"Meal money day" = cut day
The gut-wrenching moment they call you into the office
Why player #86 is diving into walls like it's Game 7

This isn't about guaranteed contracts or top prospects. This is about 18-year-olds walking into big league clubhouses for the first time, 28-year-old "suspects" (no longer prospects) trying to revive their careers, and the striking difference between making the roster and getting sent to Triple-A.

From my first spring training in 2009 to finally making Opening Day in 2014, I'll show you the walk of shame with the cart to minor league camp, the excruciating decision to pitch through injury, and what it feels like when your career hangs by a thread.
If you've ever wondered why spring training matters so much to certain players, this is your behind-the-curtain look at professional baseball's most intense audition.
